Abstract

This paper addresses some performance issues for routing design, and influencing parameters for workflow routing. In particular, we propose an adaptive routing control algorithm of workflow systems. First, we finalize some main factors that affect the workflow's performance. Then, we design a new routing control algorithm, called ARC (Adaptive Routing Control), which is based on Dijkstra's algorithm to find the efficient and flexible path of workflow. Hence, we develop a simulation program to evaluate the performance of the ARC algorithm and other two routing methods. Consequently, our results indicate that the performance of ARC is much better than other two conventional routing approaches.
